The Village of Silverton is updating its Official Community Plan (OCP) and Zoning Bylaw. These documents guide where housing can be built, how businesses operate, how we protect the lake, and how our village grows over the next 10–20 years.


You do not need planning knowledge to complete this survey. We are looking for your lived experience and honest opinions. There are no right or wrong answers. Please answer thoughtfully and include comments wherever you can. Every response is read and considered. 


In a large city, one completed survey is a statistic.
In Silverton, your completed survey helps shape real decisions. 

Your feedback is essential.
